Subject: [PATCH] rbd: don't destroy ceph_opts in rbd_add()
Date: Thu, 16 May 2013 16:29:12 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <51954FA8.6030306@inktank.com> (raw)

(Note: this patch and the two I'm about to re-post are available
in the "review/wip-4559" branch of the ceph-client git repository.)



Whether rbd_client_create() successfully creates a new client or
not, it takes responsibility for getting the ceph_opts structure
it's passed destroyed.  If successful, the structure becomes
associated with the created client; if not, rbd_client_create()
will destroy it.

Previously, rbd_get_client() would call ceph_destroy_options()
if rbd_get_client() failed, and that meant it got called twice.
That led freeing various pointers more than once, which is never a
good idea.

This resolves:
